Information control is a vital part of Intelligence, and can be seen in any large organization or paramilitary. In the Federation, with a heavily federalized structure, one is needed even more. <font color="red">'''This should not be construed as a reason to know a lot of planetary secrets or use them - your character most likely will be read into programs only as needed.'''</font>. In this spirit, I'm offering up a guide for classification.

===1.0 Information Security ===
==1.0 Information Security ==


Information security covers the practice of keeping information secret that could be harmful, the control of dissemination of restricted information, and controlling access and use. The primary method this document examines to achieve information security is security classifications. There are more methods (such as controlling physical access.)

*'''Top Secret''' - Top Secret information is information that will harm the Federation's interests. Generally, Top Secret is subdivided into special access programs. A blank Top Secret clearance would let you know certain programs exist but wouldn't tell you anything about them. People are read into Top Secret programs only as required. <font color=red>'''Please ask your CO for permission to know Top Secret info.'''</font>

*'''Most Secret''' - Most Secret information is information that will harm Federation if released, or if known, is an extant threat to the Federation. This information is given out very strictly on a need-to-know basis. (Examples: The Omega Protocol.). <font color=red>'''Only CO's would know this if they are told. You may be told as a need-to-know basis by your CO, but generally, even a high ranking Intel officer won't be read into a lot of Most Secret info'''</font>

*'''Above Top Secret''' - Extremely highly classified information. PCs generally will simply have no knowledge with this. (Examples: Any activity with Section 31.) <font color=red>'''This may seem like beating a dead horse, but this is something that's known 'at the highest levels' of the Federation and nowhere else.</font> Expect only 5 or so people knowing this.
